The majestic Bastion walls <br /> that provide a backdrop to the waterfront were erected as fortifications to the island of <br /> Malta by the Knights of St. John following the crusades. During the late 1990's and early <br /> 2000's, the Maltese Government was looking to bring about positive environmental change <br /> and restoration in order to encourage economic activity in the Grand Harbour. Through a <br /> series of workshops, a master plan was developed, presented to the Board of Directors, <br /> and approved by the Maltese Government. Upon approval, EDSA detailed design efforts <br /> for implementation. Critical to the restoration of the waterfront, was uncovering the historic <br /> waterfront edge and steps to the water. Recreation of this edge highlighted the historic <br /> buildings and provided a venue for outdoor activities. The redevelopment has resulted in <br /> nearly 540,000 annual tourists that infuse $54.5 million annually into the Maltese economy; <br /> a significant contributor to an island with a population of 300,000. <br /> 32 - EDSA's Submittal for RFC?
